Turn laptop display into normal monitor for use with a kvm in a server rack
Like many places, we have a rack with a space for a KVM. Also like many places, the monitor that sits there is a small ancient CRT. I'd like to replace it with an lcd, but I don't have much chance of getting that approved in the budget, and even if I could there's other things more pressing that could use the money. But we do end up with a dead laptop from time to time, and when that happens there's generally nothing wrong with the display. So as something to do in my spare time, I was wondering what it would take to attach a standard vga or even dvi connector to one of these. I'm not talking about using the whole laptop, just the display.
